Have you used these guys before? I looked at shipping my bike to Calgary from Toronto but it was $1000 each way. For that price I can fly in and rent something for less and save the time. Would be interested to hear your experience with them.
Squeeze first time I'm using them, they seem to be very well set up and are very popular here in QC, will let you know in August how it all went. There are other units that are not as well organized, my bike will be delivered and picked up at a hotel near the airport they have their own dedicated fleet of trucks and drivers - my plan is to work for them as a guide for their all inclusive trips when I retire!

I ran a set of Mitas Dakar, didn’t have any problems with them but they were wore out after 12,000 miles and the Missions handle a little better.
When the Dunlop TrailMax Mission first came out they were supposed to be a 50/50 tire but that later got changed to 60/40
same tire when I did it in 2018, but I like the sound of getting more miles....

I rode to Prudehoe Bay and back on a set of Dunlop TrailMax Mission tires and when I got home the tires looked like they could have still done the same trip one more time, I am definitely a Dunlop TrailMax Mission lover !
I highly doubt I will ever buy a different brand tire for my Tenere again unless for some reason they simply aren’t available when I need them.

12,000? and counting on my Missions, 7,500 round trip to Deadhorse including riding the Top of the world. An 1,900 mile run to Hells Canyon and a 2,200 mile trip to the middle of Montana plus a bunch of local miles. I'm wondering how long they are going to last! They aren't sport tour tires like the Anakee but the last sooo long............
